Schools near Westwood, MA

“Westwood Knowledge Beginnings (Kindercare) is an excellent daycare! The teachers genuinely care for my baby, and the director is incredibly attentive, responsible, and kind. I couldn’t be happier with the care and support they provide — I’d give more than five stars if I could!”

“I had a great experience getting my motorcycle license with Harley and Russ. They are extremely attentive, patient, and always willing to answer any questions throughout the process. They made everything clear and helped me feel confident and prepared. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to get their motorcycle license. Thank you, Hailey and Russ, for all your support!”

“I am incredibly grateful for ACNS! The staff are all knowledgeable and kind, and I feel so at ease knowing my son is in such a loving environment. This is such a positive introduction to school for my son. This is truly a child-led space where kids can be curious, creative, and empowered.”

“Our daughter stated here back in September at 2.5yrs old (previously in other daycares, we recently moved to the area). She is THRIVING! They helped us to potty train her within a few weeks (which has been amazing). She loves talking about her friends and her wonderful, loving teachers. They offer many activities including music and art and dance as well as lots of free play and peaceful napping. She has also tried new foods (no lunch packing!).”

“We couldn't be happier with our experience at Corner Coop. One of the standout features for us has been its flexibility with scheduling. As our daughter has grown more comfortable, we've been able to easily add on days and enroll her in the lunch program.The best part of the Coop is the teachers. They are fully engaged with the kids, always there to play, help manage those big feelings, and tailor activities to each child's interests. We’ve seen no staff turnover in the year our daughter has attended. We appreciate the play-based approach, allowing kids to choose their own activities and follow their passions. The kids spend at least an hour at the playground every day , weather permitting. They also get to play in the splash pad when it's hot and sled in Waldstein Park when it snows.Being a parent cooperative, we love being involved in the school's operations and feeling like true partners in our daughter's education journey. Corner Coop has exceeded our expectations and we're grateful to be a part of such a nurturing and supportive community.”

“We couldnt be luckier to have such loving and dedicated teachers at NGCC! Special and important shout out to Sarah and Shayne in toddler G! There really are no words besides THANK YOU SO MUCH.”

“Roman was really helpful and understanding when I enrolled my daughter. He worked around my job schedule which was a relief. All the teachers were amazing and I loved how they had so many actives for the children. Really recommend this child care!!”

“Solbe has been a great experience for our son. He became a lot more social and open to new experiences since starting at Solbe.

Probably the biggest change was his independence. He went from being totally attached 24/7 to his parents to even looking forward to and asking to go to daycare. We highly recommend Solbe for a caring staff that helps nurture your child's growth and independence.”

“Both my children go to this day care since 4 months old my oldest now being 3 years old. So we’ve been with this school for about 3 years now and that being said that means we were with this school with the old staff and director and now the newer staff and new director. The older staff before the switch has always been great and went above and beyond for my children, always calling me to let me know and keep me updated about my children and their wellbeing no matter what the situation was ( serious or non serious) I can literally feel how much my children are loved and taken care of. They have taught my children so much honestly more than I could help them with some things down to having Early intervention visiting the school who were always where the school has always accommodated to my children’s needs and schedules ( they are on medications , have Epi pens and other needs) they have always been amazing. Addressing the newer staff and director , have been nothing but wonderful. As it takes time for a new director to come into an institution and start implementing plans to make the center better you can already see such a change ! I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone this center especially where it is a chain center. As a parent of course our main concerns are our children’s needs and safety and I have had nothing but the best experience with this center and look forward to continuing on in this center through the infant 1 classroom to pre k. The new director aleigha and assistant director heather have done an amazing job coming together and making this school better everyday from changing the snack menu specifically with allergen free products so both my children can feel included when celebrating birthdays or just down to the everyday snacks. Rearranging the rooms so the children can navigate so much better. I just have nothing but amazing things to say for this place. They have even worked with me regarding payments as being someone who is on a biweekly payroll. Reading these past reviews of course sound concerning but also to me isn’t clear enough. I have never seen or witnessed anything that would make me feel concerned for my child’s safety. Toddlers are toddlers and bite and hit as they experience going through changes that’s just a given. My child was bit multiple times while in the toddler rooms as he also had been a biter sometimes unfortunately but as he transitioned from toddler to pre school 1 there has been no incidents like that. They are kids and that’s what kids do trying to explore their emotions as they learn how to feel said emotions. 5 stars all around from me ?”

“Our 2.5-year-old son, who didn’t know any English when he started, has been attending A to Z Day Care for about three months — and he has already learned so many English words and simple sentences!

When we first visited the school, Kaylie welcomed us so warmly and was incredibly kind and helpful. Our son adjusted to the school much more easily than we expected.

We’re very happy to be part of the A to Z family and truly thankful to everyone there! ?”

“My 2 kids just started recently here. Highly recommend this place, clean center, they serve food, lovely teachers and a very knowledgeable director and super friendly!!”

“Our experience at Kindercare has been amazing every day of the 18 months our son has been under their care. The team is so supportive, flexible, and understanding! A special shout out to his prior infant teachers Ms Ashely, Ms Kim, and Ms Letty and his toddler teachers Ms Ginelle, Ms Judi, and Ms Madjulie! You can't go wrong with Canton Kindercare :)”

“Wonderful preschool with great sense of community, many enrichment opportunities for kids, and active parent group. Would recommend to any family looking for preschool in Needham - conveniently located just outside of downtown.”

“Today is Teacher Appreciation Day! It’s only right I give everyone their flowers! I am a mother of 6 and I have had multiple children enrolled here at the same time for the last three years. The staff here is my family, I have never met better group of people. I TRUST them with my children with all of me. They have always advocated and done what is best for them. They treat my kids so well and always communicate with me. Little Sprouts Milton always show up for me! I’m grateful and I hope you all know your appreciated!”

“My son Ryder has been attending COA since January and I could not be more happy!!!! He is thriving in his infant classroom! Miss Weslande and Miss Marie make me feel so comfortable dropping him off every morning! Everytime we enter the classroom Ryder gives both his teachers big smiles and is excited to see them! His teachers always send me pictures and updates of him through the schools kaymbu app and I can see him through their always close by app as well which gives me such a piece of mind! We love COA and all of the staff as well!!!! ❤️”

“100% recommend Little Sprout Academy.

My son has been there since he was 1.5 and he's 4 now.

Going back to work when he was 1.5 was hard after being home with him, but one day when I picked him up I saw the teachers holding him and interacting with him and I knew they cared about him as much as I do. That was huge for me. He runs in happily every morning and comes out excited to tell me about his day. He has great friends there.

He was a pretty cautious toddler when he started - didn't like tunnels, parachutes, sprinklers, water stuff. He'd just stand to the side and watch everyone else. The teachers never pushed him though, instead they created a nurturing environment where he felt confident to join in when he was ready. Over time I started seeing photos of him actually joining in with the parachute games and the day he came running out to tell me he got his face wet with the sprinklers was awesome, he was so proud of himself!

He's learned a LOT. He is incredibly independent, can tell stories, do basic addition, knows all his letters and most of the sounds. The teachers do progress reports once a year and they're easy to talk to at drop-off and pickup if there are any highlights or concerns and they’re very easy to get on the phone if there’s something more serious to talk about.

I'd recommend LSA to anyone! It’s a great day care and preschool!”

“Our older son has been in Tobin since preschool and we have had very positive experiences so far. Teachers are caring and supportive, admin team is responsive and transparent in communication, and our son has enjoyed every single day at school here. We also love the curriculums and have seen the growth of our son both academically and emotionally.”

“Our kids love Friends! The teachers are all very warm and caring and do a great job nurturing and helping them grow. My 3-year-old runs to play as soon as we arrive each morning and loves to give hugs to his teachers when he leaves for the day. My first grader still tells me how much fun she had and that she misses her teacher.

Friends whole-heartedly welcomed my son’s early intervention specialist to work on his speech at the center and the teachers incorporated their suggestions in their daily communication with him. I truly believe this collaboration helped my son graduate from the program in less than one year.

He also has many food allergies and each classroom teacher has taken steps to ensure his safety during meal and snack times while also including him at the table with the other kids. We always felt like he was well cared for and taken care of and never had to worry about him. We are so very happy that we chose Friends to care for our kids. Thank you for everything that you do!”

“FJECC is a wonderful place for children to attend preschool. What really sets it apart are the highly trained teachers and the exceptional student-to-teacher ratio. Every staff member has a background in child care or child development, and many hold master’s degrees. The kids receive excellent support and have amazing adult role models guiding them.

My 3.5-year-old is finishing their second year at FJECC, and we’re so excited for our 18-month-old to start in the toddler room this fall. Not only is our child learning so much—like writing their name—but they are also deeply immersed in Jewish holidays and the Jewish community. We are so grateful for this nurturing and enriching environment!”

“The Goddard School of Dedham has exceeded our expectations in every way. We started with them when they first opened in 2020 with our first child and our second child is currently enrolled. The Teachers, Staff and Owner are truly amazing and constantly go above and beyond to ensure the well-being and development of each child. The dedication to creating a clean and safe environment is evident in every aspect of the school. The facility is immaculate, and safety protocols are followed to provide parents with a peace of mind knowing that their child is in good hands.Communication is top-notch. We truly appreciate the regular updates and open lines of communication between parents and staff. We have always felt informed and involved in our child’s learning journey.Overall, we could not be happier with our decision to enroll both our children with The Goddard School of Dedham.”

“We had a difficult experience with a previous daycare, so starting somewhere new came with a lot of hesitation and worry. From the very beginning, this center was a complete night-and-day difference. They were able to get us in quickly, and everything since then has been exceptional.

Our daughter had a very hard time napping, and the teachers showed incredible patience and care, working with her consistently until she was able to nap for over an hour each day. Beyond that, she comes home having learned new signs, new skills, and most importantly, she is genuinely happy at pickup every single day.

Before enrolling her here, I carried a lot of guilt and anxiety about daycare in general, fueled by so much of what you see online. Now, that feeling has completely flipped; I actually feel more guilt on the days she doesn’t go. Knowing she is so well cared for, supported, and happy has made all the difference for our family. We are incredibly grateful for this team and could not recommend them more highly.”

“We’ve had our daughter enrolled at The Academy Childcare Center for the past 11 months, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. After coming from a regional chain where the quality steadily declined over the years, this family-owned place has been a breath of fresh air.

The teachers are attentive and genuinely invested in my daughter’s growth and happiness. The administration is equally fantastic—organized, communicative, and always approachable. It’s clear that everyone here truly cares about creating a safe and enriching environment.

Our daughter absolutely loves going each day, and we’ve seen her thrive socially, emotionally, and developmentally. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to make the switch. If you’re looking for a daycare that feels like an extension of your family, this is the place!”

“Wonderful experience for our 2 children. Our son went age 2 through preK, and our daughter started at 4 months old. Very supportive leadership, clear communication, love that food is provided.”

“I couldn't be happier with our experience at First Circle Learning Center - Stoughton! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, making both my child and me feel right at home. The facility is clean, safe, and filled with engaging activities that promote learning and creativity.

My child has thrived in their caring environment, developing new skills and friendships. The daily updates and communication from the staff give me peace of mind, knowing my little one is in great hands. They truly go above and beyond to make every child feel special.

I highly recommend First Circle Learning Center - Stoughton to any parent looking for a nurturing and stimulating place for their children!”

“Every event I have gone to, witnessed, and stumbled upon has been powerful and rewarding. Excellent exhibitions with great attendance, no matter the media, uplifting!”

“Both of my girls attended MCHW for 3 years and it was the most positive, educational and encouraging environment possible. To say we are fans of MCHW is an understatement. Miss Jenn, and her smart, caring and friendly team, fostered a sense of creativity, independence and growth in an environment where both my girls, who have very different learning styles and personalities, thrived. Any parent considering a Montessori school for their child should look no farther. In fact, I cannot wait for my son to begin his journey at MCHW in a few years:) A+++ school, teachers, and environment!”

“We love Knowledge Beginnings! We’ve had consistent, wonderful teachers for the infant classroom. Amy has been a great director and communicates very well with parents. Our baby is well cared for here. Highly recommend!”

“We’ve been very happy at Family ACCESS. Particularly love how much space there is and the facilities. Great to have such a large space indoors for kids to play in winter and bad weather.”

“We love the Bright Horizons at Brookline! The entire team is fantastic and it is so evident that they truly care. They have taken such great care of our child who loves going to daycare everyday.”

“Tiny world is an amazing daycare. The instructors are loving and compassionate. Our little one adored them and was always happy to walk in there in the morning. Thank you Tiny World, it's not easy to find these great qualities in a daycare!”
